Hi my name is Natalie

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago 

That's me, taking a selfie at home. You can see behind me are some of my plants. I'm an avid houseplant collector! In every room of my house, you'll find anywhere from 4 to 10 plants! (Ok, so maybe I'm a plant hoarder.)

Some facts about me

  1. I’m an English American from the Mid-South of the United States!

  2. I love writing, traveling, and taking tons of photos of my travels.

  3. I learned about Bitcoin in 2011. A friend of mine at the time told me how he was mining it (He's probably made million$$$ from Bitcoin by now!)

  4. I've been writing about Bitcoin and digital currency since 2015.

  5. I just found out about Steem a few months ago. (Gosh, where have I been!)

  6. I work from home, most of the time on my couch...LOL, I'm not joking =)

  7. I've been doing online marketing since 2011.

  8. I was vegetarian for 8 years, but since 2 years ago, I have become a meat-eater again (for several reasons).

  9. I'm a conspiracy theorist, a bit of an anarchist, and a free thinker.

  10. I ravenously consume online content in the cryptocurrency and health niches. ESPECIALLY those that are anti-mainstream "healthcare".

  11. I'm pro- marijuana. (But I actually do not use it.)

  12. I don't want to be like EVERYBODY else, efff that!! To society: shove your endless # of rules on how to be "normal".

  13. I'd love to meet Buddha.

  14. I got certified in sailing in 2012. Being in the open ocean still scares the sh** out of me, though!

  15. I plan on sharing this post and most of my Steems on my social media.

Conclusion

Bitcoin and the blockchain tech that underpins it is changing the world rapidly. However, governments worldwide are working hard to keep from losing their control over money. You don't have to understand all the technical aspects, you just have to understand how it's disrupting virtually every industry imaginable.

I hope one day everyone uses Bitcoin. It would sure be cool to pay for all my travels with only Bitcoin! It's already possible with the Monaco Visa.I think I might just put that on my bucket list: Pay for a trip with nothing else but Bitcoin.

What you think, you become.
What you feel, you attract.
What you imagine, you create.

Welcome to Steemit!

I love that you have plants and it looks like you take care of them.

Bitcoins are cool and I am glad you have been keeping up with them...

...but you found Steemit and that is way better!
@Timbo

Thanks ;) Well, I try not to show too much favoritism to Bitcoin - I can appreciate all digital currencies. They each have their own flavor.

I completely agree. BTC is the foundation of a new technology that could easily shape and mold the world.

Yes, and I can't believe more people aren't talking about it. It's certainly taking off in mainstream media lately, like on sites such as CNBC, Forbes, Bloomberg, etc. I think generally, the public is uninformed about it.

I think the USA is VERY VERY uninformed about it. The rest of the world knows a little about it and is utilizing it slowly. China of course is already miles ahead of the game.

That is what I think anyway based on various bits of information.

I can't wait to see what happens when China launches their own national digital currency. It will certainly help to normalize digital currency for the rest of the world

I think it would make other countries not only follow suit but some digital currencies be accepted on a global market more so than they already are.

This will be good for anyone who has some stored before hand.

Good luck!
